Isabel
This past Friday was my final Korean lesson from Park Ji-Hye, or Isabel, as was she is known in my evening level 2 class. For the past two months Isabel has taught me Hangul in exchange for some lessons on how to write in English.
Isabel tells me I look like Brad Pitt. But, whatever questions you may have about her eyesight, there's little denying her proclivity for language acquisition. She is one of the best students I've ever had, though, and as a Spanish major, English is actually her third best language.
She left for Seoul Sunday to continue her university studies. She left me with a note thanking me for helping her cure her inhibitions regarding speaking with foreigners (she called it her "inveterate disease") and a box full of facial mosturizers.
Speaking of which...
I can hear you, okay? Shut up.
